Net Price Calculator

The Sacramento State Net Price Calculator provides an estimate of what it may cost to attend Sacramento State for the 2026–2027 academic year. Based on the information you provide, the calculator estimates:

  • Your estimated Cost of Attendance, including tuition and fees, housing and food, books and supplies, transportation, and personal expenses.
  • Your estimated eligibility for grants and scholarships.
  • Your estimated net price, which is the amount you may need to pay out of pocket, through savings, earnings, or student loans after estimated grant and scholarship aid is applied.

The calculator is available for both undergraduate and graduate students and takes only a few minutes to complete.

Before You Begin

To provide the most accurate estimate, have the following information available:

  • Your 2024 federal income tax return and W-2 form(s).
  • If parent information is required on your financial aid application, your parent(s)' 2024 federal income tax return(s) and W-2 form(s).
  • The current value of your (and your parent(s)', if applicable) cash, savings, investments, and other reportable assets.

Important Information

Using the Net Price Calculator does not apply you for financial aid or scholarships.

To be considered for financial aid, you must submit either:

  • the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), or
  • the California Dream Act Application (CADAA), if you are not eligible to file the FAFSA because of your citizenship or eligible noncitizen status and meet the requirements of California Assembly Bill (AB) 540.

Students interested in scholarship opportunities should also complete any applicable Sacramento State scholarship applications.

The estimates provided by the Net Price Calculator are for planning purposes only and are not a financial aid offer or guarantee of assistance. Your actual financial aid eligibility and awards may differ based on your official financial aid application, verification of the information you provide, enrollment status, academic program, available funding, and changes to federal, state, or institutional financial aid regulations.
